  • holding that theft conviction merged with aggravated robbery but declining to remand for resentencing on aggravated robbery
  • explaining that where one variation of the greater offense would not require proof of all of the elements of a lesser offense, it is proper to consider whether the crimes have a greater-lesser relationship under the facts at issue
  • theoretical comparison insufficient for theft and multiple variation crime of aggravated robbery
  • “When a defendant has been improperly convicted of both a greater and a lesser offense, it is appropriate to regard the conviction on the lesser offense as mere surplus-age, which does not invalidate the conviction and sentence on the greater offense.”
